What’s the March 2018 PlayStation Plus lineup? And when will the March 2018 PS Plus update be revealed? As another month draws to a close, we’re here to answer all your burning PS+ speculation, and also share all the latest PS Plus rumours. Without further ado, then, let’s get into it.
When will March 2018’s free PlayStation Plus games be announced?
Just like last month, Sony’s going to leave it until the very last minute to reveal March 2018’s free PS Plus games. Assuming the company follows its usual schedule, then all should be officially announced on 28th February. Of course, don’t rule out a leak in the days prior; you’ll find all of the latest news here at Push Square.
When will March 2018’s free PS Plus games be available to download?
Typically, Sony makes the free PlayStation Plus games available to download on the first Tuesday in every month, so you should be able to bust through your bandwidth cap starting 6th March.
What are March 2018’s free PlayStation Plus games?
We don’t know yet, and there aren’t a whole lot of rumours swirling at the time of writing. Sony’s been very good in recent months at giving away high-profile “retail” titles, so we’re sure that trend will continue throughout 2018 and beyond. One thing worth noting is that bonus PlayStation VR title StarBlood Arena could be rotated, so virtual reality fans may have an additional title to look forward to.
Which free March 2018 PS Plus games do you want?
It’s the part of the article where we turn our attention to you: which free games do you want with your PlayStation Plus subscription in March 2018? We haven’t had a sports game for a while, so something like Super Mega Baseball might be nice ahead of the MLB season starting – especially if it’s complemented by something high-profile on the PS4. As for the potential PSVR bonus, we reckon PlayStation VR Worlds would be a good shout, as it’s no longer being bundled but is still a great showcase for what the headset can do.
What free March 2018 PlayStation Plus games do you want? Are you looking forward to next month’s lineup, or do you rarely even bother with the PS Plus freebies these days? Let us know in the comments section below.

Knack 2
Gundam vs so I have somebody to play with.
Somehow i really dont care what i get i always buy the games i really want so some nice indie games would be nice.
Been waiting for this: KNACK 2
@themcnoisy
That’s kind of how my mind works now. I really struggle to find time to to ever play a ps plus game. The last one I had time to play was just cause 3. So for me I’d love it to be titanfall 2 to see if it can fill the lobbies for me. I’d love another bast on there
BLOOOOODBOOOORNE!
And Knack 2.
Want?
It'd be nice to see Sony hand out Gravity Rush 2 before the servers get shut down in July. There are some mumblings about The Order: 1886 being the offer...if it helps get a sequel so we can actually finish the story, great!
On the indie side, I would love Night in the Woods, Tooth and Tail, or Nob.
For VR, Fantastic Contraptions would be my choice.
Either Rainbow Six Seige, Assassin's Creed Origins, or Destiny 2.
Would love what remains of Edith Finch or little nightmares
Bloodborne would be great. It’s a game I’ve been thinking of getting but just haven’t bought yet. For my Vita, I’d like Steins:Gate ...I don’t think it’s ever been given out. And I’m still holding out for NA to get Child of Light like the rest of the world already got a few months ago. 😤
So it seems that now we have had Knack, we will get people demanding Knack 2 for the next 4yrs +.
I think we are more likely to get Killzone, the Order or some other old-ish AAA game that's been on sale and not really shifted copies. I wouldn't be surprised if we get an old AC game or one of the Far Cry's. I doubt we will though as New games can see older franchise games sell too as it jogs peoples memories that these games exist and maybe newcomers pick up older games if they like the new one.
It won't be too difficult to be more exciting than March GwG from my perspective so hoping I get something I may want to download...
Knack!!! Oops sorry force of habit. 😂 Killzone or Assassin's Creed Black Flag would be pretty sweet.
Whatever they are, I'll probably still be playing Monster Hunter World.
Gravity Rush remastered and Gravity Rush 2. Little nightmares would be cool as well.
I have a feeling that Soma will be one of the free games.
I would like Yakuza 0, Kingdom Hearts 2.8, Hellblade and What Remains of Edith Finch, but it's probably too soon, right?
Need for Speed Payback
I was just about to pay $5.99 for VR World when I remembered Sony likes to put games on PS+ right after I buy them on sale, so that's my pick, so I didn't buy it.
Killzone, Inside, Gravity Rush 2, Matterfall. Next month my subscription runs out so hopefully I can get something good for it. I won't renew unless I find that offer for $40.
knack 2, the order, some sort of racing game.
I see people say the order alot. You can buy this game very cheap all the time. I think I paid $5 for it. And it's not that great. It's ok, not great.
Some game collections would be grand. Bioshock, Dishonored, Borderlands, stuff like that.
Last of us remastered or order 1886
Shenmue 3 and Spiderman
How about yakuza 0 to warm people up for yakuza 6?
I would be very happy with gravity rush 1&2 and valkyria chronicles.
For March 2018 ps plus games
Nier automata
Dark souls 3
Strider
Knack 2 lol
Something like Super Mega Base ball would be a good pick. Not something I would buy, but I would give it a shot as a free game. Good pick Sammy!! Firewatch might also be a good choice.
It would be nice if they threw us a PS2 game on PS4 from time to time.
Speaking of which, why are these games not coming out weekly??
Is it so they can remaster every single game in the PS library?
Even still, I think people would buy the original Shadow of the Colossus as a PS2 Classic even if they already have the remastered version.
@tameshiyaku I just noticed that Yakuza 6 is discounted for preorder for PS plus customers. It knocks $6 off the price down to $53.99. That’s strange to discount a game that hasn’t even been released yet. I’m tempted to preorder even though I haven’t played Y0 yet.
@Th3solution Happens occasionally, but I'm holding out for a physical copy. Sega just didn't plan well releasing it so close to God of War. Hope it sells well anyways.
Yakuza 0 would be awesome bro ^-^
i've been dying to mention that "The order 1886" isn't such a great game tho.
I'd love a nice walking sim to get lost in, Dear Esther or Firewatch preferably.
@b1ackjack_ps Me too. I got really excited on account of the mostly true PS + leaks, and I haven't played any souls games besides Bloodborne yet.
Sandwich meat would be nice
@Destinyknight7 Strider was on ages ago
@b1ackjack_ps I'm getting the remaster for Switch. I've watched playthroughs of all of these games.
This is gonna be a great month, I have learned which games are going to be free for PS4, saddly I can't reveal names but it is a platform and an RPG
@Quintumply Came here to say this but you beat me to it 🤣
@Melucine does your dad work for Nintendo 😂
@ZeD just friends with connections!
Gravity rush 2 and outlast 2
@Melucine a platformer - Ratchet and Clank
An RPG - Bloodborne
I know you can't confirm but if they say this will be the best month ever since the beginning of the service and with the genres you mentioned, it's gotta be these. And honestly, I would like to get ratchet and clank as I really want to play it,even though I already have Bloodborne goty edition.
Since I got a PSVR set the other day (pretty cheap at £220 including the camera and GT Sport) I'm now going through a huge VR phase where I'm even playing non-VR games using the headset, and bought The Dark Knight digitally on PS4 just to watch with the headset. So anything VR, really.
I just bought Worlds for about £18 off Amazon so hopefully NOT that.
@Th3solution Steins;Gate Mandatory Happiness was on PS+ a month or two ago. Unless they skipped it where you are for some reason. It was on both Vita and PS4.
@NecuVise the was a video about a guy saying that this month is going to be the best ps plus ever. Even though it is always a matter of taste, if we are going to judge a month by metacritic alone, then he is right, at least for ps4.
But as I said what I know is from a friend, so there is always a probability that he is messing with me, even though I doubt it, two exclusives in a month is something very rare.
I am not going to comment anymore on this, after all there is a change tomorrow that we will see somekind of a leak and at worse we will know for sure in two days.
@Melucine Well if not two exclusives, then I'd say it's again Ratchet and Clank and The Witcher 3.
I know we will find out very soon, I just find it fun to make a guess and see if it's true
@NecuVise I think you misunderstound, most probably my mistake. I doubt that my friend is messing with me. Your first quess was... ( armored guys in Sony's blue colours breached my house... ) :x
@Matroska It must not have been in North America. Drat. We always get shafted from the good stuff.
There are some rumors swirling around that March might have the best games ever given away as part of the PS+ service. I would take that with a grain or two of salt, however recent months have been amazing so you never know.
@Matroska Uh...I think you meant Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness.
@ReanSchwarzer7 Argh, how did I make that mistake? I actually have Steins;Gate on PC and have watched season 1 of Psycho Pass so I don't even have the excuse of being clueless about these franchises. Doh.
@Get2SammyB @ShogunRok Is there any reason why SCEE hasn't announced the March's free PS+ IGC titles yet? Aren't they usually announced by now in Europe?
@ReanSchwarzer7 Nah, it's usually later in the day, around 16:30 or so UK time. SOON!
@ShogunRok Okay! Thanks for the info!
May be pointless to write something here estimated minutes away from the announcement, but I'm not sure what to wish for anyway. I've already hit an almost startling accidental jackpot with my wishes this month, so I'd be a jerk to wrinkle my nose at anything in March. XD Perhaps the usual for PS4 (some "first" games in the franchises so I can get a "pass GO, collect $200" step closer to starting the respective binges), although due to connection problems it has been a damn while since I last played the console. I have yet to check out the last two months' offerings, really.
Vita? Okay, I'll dare hope for more Japanese games - Psycho-Pass and Grand Kingdom might become a trend [for a while] indeed. Craziest shot? After a Spike Chunsoft game in February, might as well say Exist Archive or even Nonary Games. Again, I'm always up for PS1 and PSP titles as well - the libraries have a lot to offer even in the relatively curtailed Russian Store. There, my quota of fan entitlement for today is met. XD
PS. Grand Kingdom probably needs no commentary, but Exile's End proved to be an enticing gem as well. Quite a territory to explore, an intriguing plotline, selective but self-admitted inspiration the developers drew from old cinematic platformers like Another World and Flashback - Metroidvania genre either at its finest or simply at its well-tuned at least.
